مُتَسَانِدَيْنِ

Full Definition

مُتَسَانِدَيْنِ They two went forth aiding, or assisting, each other; as though each of them leaned, or stayed himself, upon the other, and aided himself by him. The latter word is used, in this sense, of two men going on a hostile, or hostile and plundering, expedition: and of two wolves attacking a person. And one says, خَرَجُوا مُتَسَانِدِينَ, meaning They went forth under sundry, or different, banners, or standards, every party by itself, the sons of one father under one [separate] banner, not all under the banner of one commander.
